The Imperial Militia (Vanukeaans: Keizerlijke Militie) is the paramilitary organization of the Imperial Union. It was founded on the same date as the party with the intent of raising a national force to protect the party. The militia however, has grown far beyond that. Now that Vanuku has an Emperor the militia serves as a back-up force in cases of war, all recruits of the militia follow an intensive training provided by the Imperial Land Forces and, in terms of discipline and training, are more or less equal to a professional army.
